Hard Candy Sheer Envy Prismatic Highlighter

I know I tend to focus on high-end products a lot on Beyond Blush, but there are some really incredible cruelty free brands available at the drugstore! One of those brands is Hard Candy, and today I have their Sheer Envy Prismatic Highlighter* to share with you!

I use powder highlighter everyday that I wear makeup, and I've tried out my fair share of formulas. My favourites are NARS Albatross and BECCA's Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed in Pearl, so I was excited to see how well this much cheaper option could compare!

This powder highlighter is housed in a plastic compact, without a mirror. I'm a big fan of white based highlighters, I think that they flatter my skin tone quite well. Hard Candy's Sheer Envy Prismatic Highlighter, as the name suggests, is a fairly sheer highlighter. This would be a great option for anyone just getting into the world of highlighters, or who just wants a more subtle glow. I do find this formula to be a bit gritty - it's definitely not as smooth as most other highlighters that I've used.

If you're not willing or not able to shell out the big bucks for a high end highlighter, then you might like this one from Hard Candy. However, I wasn't blown away, and I'll keep on using my BECCA highlighter for now.

Do you have any cruelty free drugstore highlighter recommendations for me?
